Bought a 48 Whizzer

I didn't put it back on yet. I want to make sure I don't bend any more clutch dogs.
I was over at Jay's house this afternoon, and this bike is loud, but in a good way. It sounds almost like a Harley. Very powerful sounding, very nice. Quenton did some good work on this engine. I bet it will sound even better once the carb is properly tuned.
I have a tilotson off a cushman on it. It starts & idles great. but from 1/3 to 2/3 throttle it bogs down but after that it roars. I'm going to try a mikuni. I'm still going to try to get the tilotson to work because it looks more original. The minute I start it though it's obvious that it's not stock. The cam is strong.

Nice bike. That throttle grip and parts were also on the Monark Supertwin with the parts put inside the bar. Supertwin engine was just two Travis cylinders on a common crankcase. All built by Power Products. Also on lawnmowers and outboards.

I finally got the engine dialed in. The mid range problem was because the main nozzle was missing from the carb. my H model Whizzers didn't have one, just a hole. A friend with a Tillotson book found out it was missing. I got one from Dennis Carpenter.
